Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on December 19, 1997.
The arms show the local castle, called Castell Gotmar or "el Castellet", dating back to 883. The cross above is a traditional religious element, and it's situated on the castle because it reminds the ancient weather-vane of the castle's tower. The lords of the castle were promoted to marquises in 1708, and because of this there is a marquis crown at the top of the arms.
